I can’t figure out why anyone answers any of those calls. If you don’t see a name you recognize, why answer? I don’t have anything except a cordless phone - I look at the caller ID, let it ring and if it goes to message, listen to silence and delete it and then block the number. Of course, they just call on a different number and the cycle repeats but I can keep blocking as long as keep calling. I don’t know why anyone would fall for any scam!
Usually I don't. IF it is a number I don't recognize I let voicemail take it - if they even bother to leave a voicemail. However, just now I'm in the midst of changing jobs due to the vaccine mandate. Going to a small company with no mandate. There are some inevitable calls back and forth with company and HR types - not necessarily numbers I recognize.

Having dumped my land line in the early 90s, over spam calls, not scam, I dumped my cell in the lead up to the 2016 election because of literally hundreds of calls and texts from political organizations all over the country, all wanting donations and they were overwhelmingly from republican campaigns. I get along just fine without any phone.
